Something To Gnaw On
If you have a short attention span, or limited time to dig into a bible study, this might be the devotional podcast for you. The goal is simple: to offer a concise study of the Bible (the target timeframe is 15 minutes) in such a way that people truly gnaw on biblical truth (both mentally and spiritually) throughout their day. And admittedly, the podcast will vary from a bible study in bite size form, to what may look and sound like personal journal entries. Jeremiah 31:34 talks about each of us knowing God firsthand.... it is my hope that this podcast spurs each person deeper in their knowledge OF God, and their experience WITH God. Welcome to Something To Gnaw On!
